“The Hottest Shafts In Golf” win Woods, Hybrids shaft counts on PGA Tour

POWAY, Calif. – Aldila posted a first, second and third place finish at the South Georgia Classic presented by First State Bank and Trust Company as the top three players were all using Aldila’s shafts, according to the Darrell Survey.

The winner landed his first Nationwide Tour victory using their VS Proto™ in his 3-wood. With the win he jumped from 24th to second place on the Nationwide Tour Money List.

The second place finisher used Aldila’s VS Proto to make the biggest move on the Money List rocketing 117 spots from 131st to 14th. Players inside the top 25 on the money list at the end of the 2009 Nationwide Tour season earn their PGA Tour card for 2010.

In fact, “The Hottest Shafts in Golf” were trusted by seven of the Top 10 at the South Georgia Classic with five players relying on the stability and accuracy of Aldila’s hottest shaft, the VooDoo®.

It was the VooDoo, featuring its patent pending S-core Technology™ that helped Aldila win the woods and hybrids shaft manufacturer counts at the Zurich Classic on the PGA Tour and the hybrids shaft count on the Nationwide Tour.

The S-core Technology™ (stabilized core), designed to maximize distance and provide outstanding accuracy, is what sets the VooDoo apart from other shafts.

“The real ‘magic’ of the VooDoo is its high modulus carbon stabilization rib that runs the length of the shaft and keeps the shaft more concentric, preventing shaft ovaling, deformation and wasted energy during the golf swing,” said Stewart Bahl, Aldila’s Marketing Manager. “The innovative rib structure increases hoop strength/stiffness so much that it is 80 percent greater than conventional graphite, and up to 60 percent greater than competitors’ attempts at cross-sectional stabilization. The VooDoo simply helps generate consistently straight and long shots – with feel competitor shafts can’t match.”

Aldila has the unique ability to define the intangibles of the game of golf. To translate numbers into theory, theory into practice, and practice into perfection. They do the experimenting so you don’t have to. Pushing success to the edge and redefining how power should feel. Are you playing Aldila, or just graphite?
